F2F Al Retto™
Like a game of Tertis gone awry, Alessio Leonardi’s F2F Al Retto is an alphabet full of boxy, outlined squares that seem to move across lines of text. This typeface should be set large, so that its subtle movement-like qualities may best be observed.

Linotype Cool Wool is part of the TakeType Library, featuring winners of Linotype's International Digital Type Design Contest. This font was designed by A. Leonardi and P. Wollein, who took their inspiration from clothing labels and care instructions. Cool Wool is designed to look like it was stitched, a style of typeface which goes back to the hand embroidery of the time of Biedermeier. Cool Wool, however, is a distinctly modern font with a technical feel. The font is not suited for longer texts, but Cool Wool is good for shorter texts and headlines, especially because of the possibilities allowed by its three different styles, regular, stone washed (bold) and Cotton Club (outline).
